The Insider is reporting that A Full Plate is moving to Fishtown. Shannon Dougherty and Liz Peterson will be moving their café and catering from Liberties Walk to a spot across from Loco Pez at 2370 E. Norris Street when their lease is up in 2013. The new digs, called Cedar Point Bar & Kitchen, will have a liquor license, 50 seats, and 16 taps. Cedar Point Bar & Kitchen will cook up American cuisine classics for dinner and lunch every day, with brunch on the weekends.

Starting today, July 12th and lasting through Thursday, July 26th the seventh annual University City Dining Days bring specially priced menus to over 30 West Philadelphia eateries. Priced at either $15, $25, or $30, each meal is a prix fixe three course deal.

For the 7th year in a row University City area restaurants are gearing up for University City Dining Days two-weeks full of dining deals from July 12th to 26th. The event is meant to bring traffic to the area during its slow months. This year a record 34 restaurants are participating in the prix-fixe specials which offer three courses for $15, $25, or $30.

Craig LaBan lowered LaBoom on a trio of barbecue spots in his review of Baby Blues this week. It wasn’t enough to nail the University City barbecue joint, he also sliced into Famous Dave’s BBQ Shack and Fergie’s new barbecue menu.

It’s hard to get past disappointing pork ribs, though, at a barbecue joint. And while I’ve had worse recently (see Famous Dave’s above), both the baby backs and the bigger “Memphis”-style ribs left much to be desired, including an overly saucy sweet glaze and lack of dusty rub that left my pal, a Memphis-born ringer, singing the blues.

Adam Erace visits University City’s Baby Blues Barbecue and finds that the meat is fine but not much else.

[T]he pink-ringed meats that emerge from the 1-ton Southern Pride smoker in a cloud of applewood and hickory mist are the real stars of Baby Blues’ menu. Though the greasy ropes of pulled pork tasted left over from the weekend, the other cuts on the “Blue Devil” (that’s four meats and three sides) satisfied.

We’re extremely excited for the opening ofÂ BabyÂ Blues in University City. The West Coast barbecue joint is opening to the public on October 8th. According to Michael Klein there are some private parties the week before (we’re sure our invite is in the mail). [The Insider]

General Lafayette Inn and Brewery has closed but the story isn’t that straightforward. The brewery lives on under the name Copper Crow Beer and an agreement of sale for the restaurant is in hand paving the way for a reopening in short order, maybe. [Jack Curtin’s Liquid Diet]

Michael Klein reports that University City is getting a branch of Baby Blues, a BBQ place that comes highly recommended by trusted Foobooz operatives who live near the Venice, California location. They say what is so impressive is how good across the board the dishes are.

The University City location will be at the former Bubble House on Sansom Street. Opening is hoped for by the end of the year.
